Designed exclusively for this event, Nature Lotería is a customized game inspired by the traditional Mexican Lotería game—similar to bingo! Local San Jose artist David Cipres designed our one-of-a-kind Nature Loteria cards, which feature stunning illustrations of the Bay Area and California plants and animals. It’s an easy game to learn, and while playing, you’ll discover the wonderful biodiversity while celebrating Mexican culture.
What is Lotería? Lotería (Spanish word meaning “lottery”) is a traditional Mexican board game of chance similar to bingo. It is played on a deck of cards instead of numbered ping-pong balls. Each card depicts a unique image, representing various aspects of Mexican culture, folklore, and nature.
Join us for a fun, interactive game of Nature Lotería and a chance to win prizes. Enjoy music, interact with partner booths, eat food, and play games with other community members.
